OT: Google chrome stable question
I know Google Chrome is not directly supported by the debian community. I do however think there are some of you that use this browser and this question is directed to those folks. I have 'debianized' Google chrome stable from their website installed and I am getting an error message on some websites that I browse, that says the adobe flash is out of date. It asks if I want to run the old version I have for now. It pops up every time I go to a site that uses flash content. It's annoying that 'Google' has not fixed this as they develop Chrome themselves, but for now does anyone have any suggestions for getting rid of the error. Besides using another browser, that is! LOL. Thanks! frosty -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

To be frank I did not spend much time looking at Iron as you might have guessed. I distrust, EXTREMELY, a site that has all that type of junk on it. I do use Windows 7 pro for some things but not as a regular thing. Just for some CAD apps I need. I decided to give Debian 'chromium' another try. been a few years since I tried it. So far seems to do what I want with no flash errors. Thanks! frosty -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
